Hoshor Plains snowfall in the mountains and smoke up on the breeze

maybe @Minnow and/or @Sumac ?

Valiant was around — Easy was sure of it, now. She had his scent but no real trail; the isbjørn seemed prone to wandering, which made her heart warm but frustrated her on this particular morning.

She had invited Sumac out to hunt with her, but along the way, she caught a stronger whiff of her nephew. Distracted, she stood tall and swiveled her ears, hoping to see a familiar figure trotting toward her. When none was apparent, she let out a huffy sigh. There was nothing she needed to say or do once she found him — she just wanted to lay eyes on him and see that he was doing alright. It worried her that Arjun's scent was nowhere to be found, when they were usually as thick as thieves.

That could be for any number of reasons. Easy swept a sad smile over her shoulder, glad for Sumac's company. She had much to be grateful for — she wouldn't allow herself to grieve prematurely when Sumac had lost everyone. She felt a need to be strong for both of them, which meant she tried her best not to show how anxious she was for her boys. It slipped through now, though, even as her smile tried to reassure Sumac that everything was alright.
